PEPFAR's annual planning process is done either at the country (COP) or regional level (ROP).
PEPFAR's programs are implemented through implementing partners who apply for funding based on PEPFAR's published Requests for Applications.
Since 2010, PEPFAR COPs have grouped implementing partners according to an organizational type. We have retroactively applied these classifications to earlier years in the database as well.
Also called "Strategic Areas", these are general areas of HIV programming. Each program area has several corresponding budget codes.
Specific areas of HIV programming. Budget Codes are the lowest level of spending data available.
Expenditure Program Areas track general areas of PEPFAR expenditure.
Expenditure Sub-Program Areas track more specific PEPFAR expenditures.
Object classes provide highly specific ways that implementing partners are spending PEPFAR funds on programming.
Cross-cutting attributions are areas of PEPFAR programming that contribute across several program areas. They contain limited indicative information related to aspects such as human resources, health infrastructure, or key populations programming. However, they represent only a small proportion of the total funds that PEPFAR allocates through the COP process. Additionally, they have changed significantly over the years. As such, analysis and interpretation of these data should be approached carefully. Learn more
Beneficiary Expenditure data identify how PEPFAR programming is targeted at reaching different populations.
Sub-Beneficiary Expenditure data highlight more specific populations targeted for HIV prevention and treatment interventions.
PEPFAR sets targets using the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) System - documentation for which can be found on PEPFAR's website at https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. As with most data on this website, the targets here have been extracted from the COP documents. Targets are for the fiscal year following each COP year, such that selecting 2016 will access targets for FY2017. This feature is currently experimental and should be used for exploratory purposes only at present.
07-C0606: Otse Home Based Care Society.
This activity has USG Team Botswana Internal Reference Number C0606. This activity links to the following: C0602 & C0603 & C0604 & C0605 & C0607 & C0608 & C0613 & C0614 & C0618 & C0802 & X1406.
The Otse HBC Society (HBCS) provides care for chronically and terminally ill patients, including the elderly, in their homes. Otse HBCS provides equipment for better physical care and symptomatic treatment before ARV use. Otse HBC provides nutritional support to the disadvantaged, and liaises with other agencies, professionals, and donors to provide physical, emotional, and material support. In FY07, Otse HBCS will provide a range of palliative care services to 500 PLWHA over 3 years in homes and at a day care centre facility. The services that are available to PLWHA include: •Pain relief, through provision of drugs like analgesics and physical methods e.g., heat application to reduce advancement of HIV/AIDS. •Counseling people on ARV adherence and how to cope with side effects •Providing the disadvantaged with nutritional support, educating them on the importance of good nutrition, and helping them to be self sufficient by providing themselves with food. •Respite care for seriously affected patients. Otse is providing 100 households a month access to respite care at their day care center. •Providing spiritual care at a chapel where pastors can conduct prayers for patients, and patients can talk with one another about their conditions.
To ensure that PLWHA receive a high standard of palliative care, Otse HBCS will employ a two-pronged approach and train both community-based HBC volunteers as well as primary caregivers. Over the life of the program, a total of 200 primary caregivers will be trained in a 1-2 day workshop based on an existing MOH manual. These primary caregivers will back up the palliative care being provided by the CHBC volunteers. HBCS volunteers and primary caregivers will continue to receive refresher on-the-job training. In FY07, Otse HBCS will also train an additional 40 volunteers to provide palliative care. The volunteer training workshop is a 5 day workshop. The 5-day volunteer workshop training will be followed by a weekly in-service training for all volunteers. PLWHA who are currently involved in support groups will be included in the trainings. Objectives: •To reduce the burden of care for chronic and terminally ill PLWHA in the community. •To empower primary and volunteer caregivers to provide quality care.
This organization will be monitored by the Prime Partner to ensure provision of quality services to PLWHA. The organization will also participate in tracking data that is relevant in responding to the needs of the MOH PCU. In addition, it will monitor its activities using its own organizational palliative care indicators. The Prime Partner will assist the organization to develop its detailed implementation plan and the monitoring performance plan.
